In addition, the inner surface of the front wall 21 of the upper rail 3 is a first side surface with which the elastic portion 62 contacts and is a first contact surface (see FIG. 8). The position of the elastic portion 62 and the receiving portion 59 are located at the counter electrode with the rotation center shaft 56 of the rotation base 42 interposed therebetween. The elastic part 62 is always pressed against the inner surface of the front wall 21 by the urging force of the urging member 44, and the receiving part 59 is always in contact with the inner surface of the rear wall 22, thereby The reaction force accompanying the urging force of 44 is received. The inner surface of the rear wall 22 of the upper rail 3 is a second side surface with which the receiving portion 59 comes into contact, and is a second contact surface (see FIG. 8). The elastic portion 62 has a first arc surface, the receiving portion 59 has a second arc surface, and both the inner surface of the front wall 21 and the inner surface of the rear wall 22 are formed as arc surfaces. On the other hand, it has a shape that is easy to slide. However, the second arc surface of the receiving portion 59 is formed of a gentle arc surface having a larger radius than the first arc surface. Further, the second arc surface of the receiving portion 59 is configured with a smoother low friction surface than the first arc surface. Thus, the receiving part 59 is configured to be slippery with respect to the inner surface of the rear wall 22.

  Since the partition 1 includes the self-closing mechanism 4, the partition 1 includes a lock mechanism that maintains the panel 2 in a fully opened state (see FIG. 6). Specifically, the lock mechanism includes a lock portion 64 provided on the base 41 and a lock receiving portion 65 with which the lock portion 64 is engaged. The lock portion 64 protrudes from the end of the base 41 on the wheel 53 side. The lock receiving portion 65 is provided at a position close to the wall portion 66 located in the arrow D1 direction in the upper rail 3a corresponding to the panel 2a, and the lock portion 64 is formed by a pair of elastic pieces 65a that are displaced toward and away from each other. Pinch. Thereby, the panel 2 which is going to move to the arrow D2 direction automatically can be maintained in a fully open state.

  The cover 46 is disposed on the base 41 so as to cover the rotating base 42 and the moving base 43 disposed on the base 41. A guide groove 67 is provided on the surface of the cover 46 as a guide portion for guiding the cord 31 along the longitudinal direction. The cover 46 is fixed to the base 41 by a fixing member 68 such as a screw. Further, on the base 41, a pulley 54 is disposed on which the cord 31 extending in the direction of the vertical rod 12a of the panel 2 is engaged. The pulley 54 is a support portion that receives the load of the weight 35 by being engaged with the cord 31 extending in the direction of the vertical rod 12 a near the wheel 53. The shaft 54 a of the pulley 54 is rotatably supported by the bearing 54 b of the base 41.

  The pulley 54 can be provided not on the base 41 but on the vertical shaft 12a. In this case, the structure of the stopper 5 can be simplified. Incidentally, the support shaft 18 is a member that suspends the panel 2 from the upper runner 6, and the vertical position of the panel 2 is adjusted by moving the position of the shaft holding member 18 a up and down with respect to the support shaft 18 ( 2 and 3). Therefore, when the pulley 54 is provided on the vertical shaft 12a, when the vertical position of the panel 2 is adjusted, the position of the pulley 54 also varies vertically according to the variation of the vertical position of the panel 2.

Next, the effect | action of the partition comprised as mentioned above is demonstrated.
In order to move the front panel 2a from the fully closed state that partitions the space to the fully open state, first, in the fully closed state, a hand is applied to the handle 14 of the panel 2a that is positioned in the direction of the arrow D2. 2a is moved in the direction of arrow D1, which is the opening direction (see FIG. 1). Then, the panel 2a first moves in the same direction, the panel 2a and the panel 2b overlap (see FIG. 11), and then the pressing protrusion 9 of the panel 2a pushes the panel 2b, and the panel 2b moves in the same direction. When in the fully open state, the panel 2a overlaps with a state in which the panel 2b is displaced in the direction of the arrow D2 by the vertical hook 12b in the direction of the arrow D1. As shown in FIG. 8, at this time, the stopper 5 also moves in the upper rail 3a in the same direction as the upper runner 6a. Since the elastic portion 62 of the moving base 43 is pressed against the inner surface of the front wall 21 of the upper rail 3 a by the urging force of the urging member 44, the rotating base 42 resists the urging force of the rotating urging member 45. As the stopper 5 moves in the direction of arrow D1, it rotates in the direction of arrow D5, which is the first rotation direction, about the rotation center axis 56. The elastic part 62 moves while sliding on the inner surface of the front wall 21. FIG. 11 shows an intermediate state between the fully open state and the fully closed state in which the panel 2a and the panel 2c overlap.

  When the panel 2a is in the fully closed state, the movable body 32 of the self-closing mechanism 4 is such that the weight 35 and the movable body 32 are in the lowest position in the vertical shaft 12a, and the panel 2a is moved in the direction of arrow D1. Thus, the weight 35 and the moving body 32 sequentially rise in the direction of the arrow D3 against the weight of the weight 35 and the moving body 32. When moving to the fully open state, the panel 2a and the panel 2b are moved in the direction of the arrow D1 to a position where they overlap with the panel 2c. In the fully open state, the moving body 32 is in the uppermost position in the downarm 12a. When the panel 2a is moved to the fully open state, the lock portion 64 is engaged with the lock receiving portion 65, whereby the fully open state is maintained. That is, the panel 2a is provided with the self-closing mechanism 4 by the locking mechanism, but it is suppressed that the panel 2a automatically moves in the arrow D2 direction which is the closing direction.

  When the panel is changed from the fully open state to the fully closed state, the lock by the lock portion 64 is released and then the stopper 5 is unlocked. Specifically, the user pulls the handle 14 of the panel 2 a to operate the panel 2 a in the direction of the arrow D <b> 2 that is the closing direction, and removes the lock portion 64 from the lock receiving portion 65. Then, the panel 2a starts moving in the arrow D2 direction due to the weight of the weight 35 and the moving body 32.

  As another method, in order to move the panel 2a in the direction of the arrow D2, the panel 2c connected by the panel 2c and the panel guide 7 is pressed against the panel 2a by slightly moving the panel 2c in the direction of the arrow D2. The protrusion 9 can be pushed to start the movement of the panel 2a in the same direction. Thereby, the lock | rock part 64 can be removed from the lock | rock receiving part 65, and the panel 2a can be moved to the arrow D2 direction by the self-closing mechanism 4 after this.

  Then, since the elastic part 62 of the moving base 43 is pressed against the inner surface of the front wall 21 of the upper rail 3a, the rotating base 42 is coupled with the urging force of the rotating urging member 45 in the direction of the arrow D2 of the stopper 5. In the direction of arrow D6 that is the second rotation direction in accordance with the movement of. However, since the elastic portion 62 of the rotation base 42 rotating in the direction of the arrow D5 is pressed against the inner surface of the front wall 21 by the urging force of the urging member 44, the weight 35 of the self-closing mechanism 4 and the moving body Only the driving force based on the weight of 32 does not rotate the rotation base 42 in the direction of arrow D6. Therefore, even if the panel 2a tries to move in the direction of the arrow D2 by the self-closing mechanism 4, the movement in the same direction is blocked by the stopper 5 and is stopped. Thereby, the substantially fully open state of the panel 2a is maintained. During this time, the user can move the luggage.

  In order to resume the movement of the panel 2a in the direction of the arrow D2, an operation of moving the panel 2a in the same direction again by placing the hand on the handle 14 is performed. Then, according to the movement of the stopper 5 in the direction of arrow D2, the elastic base 62 is pressed by the front wall 21 and the biasing member 44 is contracted, and the rotation base 42 is rotated about the rotation center axis 56 in the direction of arrow D6. (See FIG. 10). Thereby, the lock | rock by the stopper 5 is cancelled | released. In the process of transition from the state shown in FIG. 8 to the state shown in FIG. 10, the moving base 43 is in a neutral state substantially perpendicular to the inner surface of the front wall 21 (see FIG. 9). At this time, the pressing force with which the elastic portion 62 presses the inner surface of the front wall 21 is maximized. A receiving portion 59 as a circular arc projection on the opposite electrode across the elastic portion 62 and the rotation center shaft 56 abuts on the inner surface of the rear wall 22, receives a reaction force of the urging member 44, and applies a load to the rotation center shaft 56. Reduce. Thereby, even if the external force of the direction which bends the rotation center axis | shaft 56 is added, it can suppress that the rotation center axis | shaft 56 bends by the said external force.

  Then, the elastic portion 62 moves until the panel 2a is fully closed while being in sliding contact with the inner surface of the front wall 21 with the rotation base 42 rotated in the direction of arrow D6 (see FIG. 10). The moving body 32 of the self-closing mechanism 4 descends in the direction of arrow D4 to the lowest position in the vertical rod 12a due to the weight of the weight 35 and the moving body 32. That is, the panel 2a moves in the direction of the arrow D2 together with the panel 2b from the state where it overlaps the panel 2c. Thereafter, only the panel 2a moves in the same direction until it is fully closed (see FIG. 1).

  As another method, when the operation of resuming the movement of the panel 2a in the direction of the arrow D2 is performed, the panel 2b connected to the panel 2c and the panel guide 7 is moved by largely moving the back panel 2c in the direction of the arrow D2. It is possible to start the movement of the panel 2a in the same direction by pressing the pressing protrusion 9 of the panel 2a. In this case, the rotation base 42 is rotated in the direction of the arrow D6 about the rotation center axis 56 by the elastic portion 62 being pressed by the front wall 21 and the biasing member 44 being contracted (see FIG. 10). As a result, the stopper 5 is unlocked and moved in the same direction until the panel 2a is fully closed.

  When all the panels are not fully opened, but opened halfway (for example, when only the panel 2a is opened as shown in FIG. 11 or only the panel 2a is opened halfway), become that way. That is, the moving body 32 of the self-closing mechanism 4 rises in the direction of the arrow D3 halfway. At this time, the rotation base 42 of the stopper 5 rotates in the direction of the arrow D5 about the rotation center axis 56, and the elastic portion 62 is Then, it moves while sliding on the inner surface of the front wall 21 (see FIG. 8). When the hand is released from the pull handle 14, the panel 2 a starts to move the moving body 32 in the direction of the arrow D 4 due to the weight of the weight 35 and the moving body 32. At this time, since the elastic portion 62 is pressed against the inner surface of the front wall 21 by the urging force of the urging member 44, only the driving force based on the weight 35 of the self-closing mechanism 4 and the weight of the moving body 32 is used. The rotation base 42 is not rotated in the arrow D6 direction. Therefore, even if the panel 2a tries to move in the direction of the arrow D2 by the self-closing mechanism 4, the movement in the same direction is blocked by the stopper 5 and is stopped. In order to resume the movement of the panel 2a in the direction of arrow D2, an operation of moving the panel 2a in the same direction again is performed.

  Furthermore, when changing from the fully open state to the fully closed state at once, the lock release by the lock portion 64 and the lock of the stopper 5 can be released almost simultaneously by moving the panel 2a and the panel 2c in the direction of the arrow D2 at once. The panel 2a can be moved in the same direction.

According to the first embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1-1) The stopper 5 can stop the movement of the panel 2a in the same direction when the panel 2a starts moving in the arrow D2 direction which is the closing direction. During this time, the user can move the luggage.
(1-2) In order to resume the movement of the panel 2a in the direction of the arrow D2, which is the closing direction, it is only necessary to hold the handle 14 and push the panel 2a to the panel 2a in the same direction again. Can be.

  (1-3) The receiving portion 59 as a circular arc projection on the opposite electrode across the elastic portion 62 and the rotation center shaft 56 contacts the inner surface of the rear wall 22, and the elastic portion 62 is pressed against the inner surface of the front wall 21. In response to the reaction force, the load on the rotation center shaft 56 can be reduced. In particular, when the movement in the closing direction (arrow D2 direction) is stopped, the pressing force with which the elastic portion 62 presses against the inner surface of the front wall 21 is maximized. Therefore, the load on the rotation center shaft 56 can be reduced.

(1-4) The moving base 43 is urged in the pressure contact direction of the elastic portion 62 by the urging member 44 with respect to the rotation base 42. Therefore, the frictional force between the elastic portion 62 and the inner surface of the front wall 21 can be increased, and the panel 2a moving in the arrow D2 direction can be reliably stopped.
(1-5) The rotation base 42 is urged by the rotation urging member 45 so that the rotation base 42 is positioned in a neutral state. Therefore, the rotation of the rotation base 42 can be reliably controlled.

(1-6) The second arc surface of the receiving portion 59 is formed of a gentle arc surface having a larger radius than the first arc surface of the elastic portion 62. Further, the second arc surface of the receiving portion 59 is configured with a smoother low friction surface than the first arc surface. Accordingly, the receiving portion 59 is easy to slide with respect to the inner surface of the rear wall 22. That is, the movement resistance of the panel 2a when the receiving part 59 is always in contact with the inner surface of the rear wall 22 can be minimized.
(1-7) The stopper 5 has a configuration in which the elastic portion 62 is in contact with the inner surface of the front wall 21 and the receiving portion 59 is in contact with the rear wall 22, thereby shortening the vertical dimension of the upper rail 3 and reducing the size. can do.

(1-8) The main components of the self-closing mechanism 4 can be provided in the vertical rod 12a in the direction of the arrow D1. Therefore, the self-closing mechanism 4 can be made inconspicuous in appearance.
(1-9) The stopper 5 is positioned in the direction of the arrow D1 with respect to the upper runner 6a, and can reliably support the weight 35 via the cord 31.
(1-10) The load of the weight 35 can also be supported by the pulley 54.
(1-11) The stopper 5 can guide the cord 31 extending on the cover 46 by the guide groove 67.

In addition, the said 1st Embodiment can also be suitably changed and implemented as follows.
In the stopper 5, the elastic portion 62 may be brought into pressure contact with either the upper wall 23 or the support piece 25, and the receiving portion 59 may be in contact with either one. A similar effect can be obtained by such a configuration.

-In the self-closing mechanism 4, the weight 35 does not need to be arrange | positioned in the vertical hook 12a. In this case, it should just be set as the structure which arrange | positions on the outer side of the vertical gutter 12a, is covered with a decorative board etc., and the weight 35 does not stand out.
The configuration of the self-closing mechanism 4 may not include the movable pulley 33 and the moving body 32. That is, a configuration in which the weight 35 is directly attached to the cord 31 may be used. Thereby, if it is a partition of the use which can accept | permit that a movement range becomes narrow, the simplification of the structure of the self-closing mechanism 4 is realizable. Further, the self-closing mechanism 4 is not limited to the configuration shown in FIGS.

The stopper 5 may not be connected to the upper runner 6a in the direction of the arrow D1. That is, the stopper 5 may be arranged on the arrow D2 direction side with respect to the upper runner 6a.
The radius of the arc surface of the elastic portion 62 and the receiving portion 59 may be the same, or the elastic portion 62 may be a gentle arc surface. The receiving portion 59 only needs to have lower friction than the elastic portion 62.

When the elastic portion 62 is pressed against the support piece 25 and the receiving portion 59 is in contact with the inner surface of the upper wall 23, the rotation urging member 45 may be omitted. In this case, the elastic part 62 should just be set as the structure which arrange | positions a weight and hangs in the vertical direction with dead weight.
The stopper 5 may be connected to the upper runner 6b in the panel 2a. Moreover, you may connect with the upper runner 6a and the upper runner 6b of the panel 2b or the panel 2c.

-You may abbreviate | omit the movement base 43 which comprises a rotation unit. In this case, the configuration of the stopper 5 can be simplified. In this case, the elastic part 62 and the receiving part 59 are provided at the position of the counter electrode on the rotary base 42. The elastic portion 62 is configured to elastically contract as much as the amount of movement of the moving base 43 relative to the rotating base 42.
The stopper 5 may not be directly connected to the upper runner 6a. As an example, an intermediate member may be interposed between the stopper 5 and the upper runner 6a. Further, the stopper 5 may be supported by another member provided on the horizontal bar 13a and arranged in the upper rail 3.

As a result, the control member 76 can move in conjunction with the movement of the upper runner 6a.

  The stopper 70 does not include the lock portion 64 unlike the stopper 5 of the first embodiment, and the lock portion 64 is disposed at the upper end portion of the vertical rod 12a in the arrow D1 direction of the panel 2a. .

Next, the effect | action of the partition comprised as mentioned above is demonstrated.
In order to change from the fully closed state in which the panel 2 partitions the space to the fully open state, the panel 2a is first moved in the direction of the arrow D1, which is the opening direction. Then, as shown in FIG. 12, together with the upper runner 6a, the stopper 70 moves in the upper rail 3a in the same direction. When the panel 2a is moved in the arrow D1 direction, the movement of the control member 76 is interlocked with the movement of the upper runner 6a. As shown in FIG. 14, the control protrusion 76a engages with the first engagement piece 74c and the second engagement piece 75c. The control protrusion 76a engages with and presses the first engagement piece 74c and the second engagement piece 75c in the same direction, thereby causing the first contact member 74 and the second contact member 75 to move to the first rotation shaft 74a and the first rotation shaft 74a. 2 Rotate in the direction of arrow D7 about the rotation shaft 75a. Then, the first pressing portion 74b and the second pressing portion 75b are separated from each other, and the support piece 25 is released (release position). Thereby, the upper runner 6a can move in the direction of the arrow D1 in the upper rail 3a. When the panel 2a is fully opened, the moving body 32 is in the uppermost position in the vertical hook 12a.

  When the panel is changed from the fully open state to the fully closed state, for example, when the lock mechanism that locks the fully closed state is unlocked, the panel 2a moves in the arrow D2 direction, which is the closing direction, by the action of the self-closing mechanism 4. To start. As an example, the lock part 64 provided in the panel 2a is removed from the lock receiving part 65 on the wall part 66 side. With this as an opportunity, the panel 2a starts moving in the direction of the arrow D2 due to the weight of the weight 35 and the moving body 32. Then, as shown in FIG. 15, the upper runner 6a also moves in the same direction, and moves the control member 76 in the same direction. Since the first pressing piece 78b and the second pressing piece 79b are pressed against the end portion of the support piece 25, the control member 76 can move so as to be pressed by the upper runner 6a. The control protrusion 76a is located between the first protrusion 74e and the second protrusion 75e, and presses the first protrusion 74e and the second protrusion 75e away from each other. Accordingly, the first contact member 74 and the second contact member 75 rotate in the direction of the arrow D8 around the first rotation shaft 74a and the second rotation shaft 75a, and the first pressing portion 74b and the second pressing member are rotated. The support piece 25 is sandwiched between the portions 75b (stop position, see FIG. 16). As a result, the panel 2a is maintained in a substantially fully opened state, so that the user can move the luggage during this time.

  In order to resume the movement of the panel 2a in the direction of the arrow D2, an operation of moving to the panel 2a in the same direction again is performed. Then, using this as a trigger, the panel 2a resumes moving in the direction of the arrow D2 due to the weight of the weight 35 and the moving body 32. Then, the control protrusion 76a engages and presses the first engagement protrusion 74d and the second engagement protrusion 75d. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 18, the first contact member 74 and the second contact member 75 are rotated in the direction of the arrow D7 around the first rotation shaft 74a and the second rotation shaft 75a. Then, the first pressing portion 74b and the second pressing portion 75b are separated from each other to release the support piece 25 (release position, see FIG. 17). Thus, the upper runner 6a can move in the direction of the arrow D2 in the upper rail 3a. When the panel 2a is fully closed, the moving body 32 is in the lowest position in the vertical hook 12a.

  Note that when the panel 2a is opened to a halfway state instead of the fully opened state, the moving body 32 rises halfway in the direction of the arrow D3, and the control protrusion 76a has the first engagement piece 74c and the second engagement. Engage with the piece 75c. Thereby, the 1st contact member 74 and the 2nd contact member 75 will be in the state from which the 1st press part 74b and the 2nd press part 75b were mutually separated, and release the support piece 25 (release position). When the hand is released from the panel 2a, the panel 2a starts to move down in the direction of the arrow D4 and starts moving in the direction of the arrow D2 due to the weight of the weight 35 and the moving body 32. . When the first contact member 74 and the second contact member 75 are in the release position, the distance between the apex of the first protrusion 74e and the apex of the second protrusion 75e is smaller than the diameter of the control protrusion 76a. When the control protrusion 76a moves between the first protrusion 74e and the second protrusion 75e, the first protrusion 74a and the second protrusion 75e are moved until the distance between the first protrusion 74e and the second protrusion 75e matches the diameter of the control protrusion 76a. The protrusion 74e and the second protrusion 75e are pressed in a direction away from each other. Thereby, the 1st contact member 74 and the 2nd contact member 75 rotate and pinch the support piece 25 with the 1st press part 74b and the 2nd press part 75b (stop position). Thereby, the movement of the panel 2a is stopped. In order to resume the movement of the panel 2a in the direction of arrow D2, an operation is performed to move the panel 2a in the same direction again. Then, the control protrusion 76a engages with the first engagement protrusion 74d and the second engagement protrusion 75d, and rotates the first contact member 74 and the second contact member 75. Thereby, the 1st press part 74b and the 2nd press part 75b are mutually spaced apart, and the support piece 25 is released (release position). The panel 2a is moved in the arrow D2 direction by the self-closing mechanism 4.

According to the second embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(2-1) The stopper 70 can stop the movement of the panel 2a in the same direction when the panel 2a starts moving in the arrow D2 direction which is the closing direction.
(2-2) To resume the movement of the panel 2a in the direction of the arrow D2, it is only necessary to push the panel 2a to the panel 2a again in the same direction.
(2-3) The control member 76 is interlocked with the movement of the upper runner 6a, and the first contact member 74 and the second contact member 75 are rotated to move from the open position to the stop position. The panel 2a moving in the direction of arrow D2) can be stopped.

The second embodiment can be implemented with appropriate modifications as follows.
-When the 1st press part 74b and the 2nd press part 75b are moving to the arrow D1 direction and the arrow D2 direction, you may lightly contact in the range which does not become the hindrance to a support piece 25.
One of the first contact member 74 and the second contact member 75 may be a rotating piece and the other may be a fixed piece. Even in such a case, the movement of the upper runner 6a can be stopped by sandwiching the movable piece in cooperation with the fixed piece.
The upper runner 6a and the control member 76 may not be directly connected. For example, an intermediate member may be interposed for adjusting the length between the upper runner 6a and the control member 76.
The stopper 70 may be connected to a runner other than the upper runner 6a. For example, you may connect with the upper runner of panels 2 other than the panel 2a.
The stopper 70 may not be directly connected to the upper runner 6a. As an example, an intermediate member may be interposed between the stopper 70 and the upper runner 6a. Further, the stopper 70 is supported by another member provided on the horizontal rail 13a, and the first contact member 74 and the second contact member 75 are moved to the release position and the stop position by the control member 76 disposed in the upper rail 3. You may make it perform control to displace.

In addition, the said 1st Embodiment and 2nd Embodiment can also be suitably changed and implemented as follows.
The handle 14 may be disposed on both sides of the vertical rods 12a and 12b of all the panels 2. Further, as shown in FIG. 1 (a), the panel 2a positioned at the front side is disposed on the vertical rod 12b on the front surface, and the panel 2c positioned at the rear side is disposed on the vertical rod 12a on the rear surface. It may be arranged.
The panels 2a to 2c may be provided with a lower runner on the horizontal bar 13b and guided by a lower rail provided on the floor surface. Thereby, panel 2a-2c can be moved stably.
-The partition can be applied not only to sliding doors, but also to partitions such as folding sliding doors, accordion curtains, and panel screens. The opening / closing operation may be performed by means other than the handle 14. As an example, in the case of a panel screen, the operation may be performed with an operation bar such as a baton connected to the upper end of the screen.
The number of panels 2 is not limited to three, but may be one or two, or four or more.
